For some reason I think of it as an older concept. Now Starbucks and coffee chains are popular.

Highlighting carlcook’s advice:

dissolve in cold water, ONLY THEN add hot water. The rationale behind it is that aromatics evaporate too quickly when the instant powder is infused with too/boiling hot water.

        I hadn’t heard of this. Looks like they’re using sugar to make that thick consistency. One recipe says 1tbsp coffee 1tbsp sugar 1tbsp hot water. That’s a hard no from me.
